i wasn't breaking your heart, just closing
the bar
and i wasn't trying to be cool, just bending some rules
i know it sounds hard to believe
but i guess i needed to be
reminded of how bad it might have been
yes, i needed to be reminded of working on a bitter end
there's nothing to fear, whatever i do
you know i always remember you
but i needed to be reminded of me
so i ordered up a new round of jokes and blew a curtain
of smoke
swung from the fixtures of fame and put a face to the name
then i opened up an old wound to bleed
but i was happy to be
reminded of how bad it might have been
yes, i needed to be reminded of working on a bitter end
there's nothing to fear, whatever i do
you know i always remember you
but i needed to be reminded of me |
